Born in the heat of the desert Born in the heat of the desert Nascido no calor do deserto My mother died giving me life My mother died giving me life Minha mãe morreu ao me dar a luz Deprived of the love of a father Deprived of the love of a father Privado de um amor de um pai Blamed for the loss of his wife Blamed for the loss of his wife Culpado pela perda de sua esposa You know lord I've been in a prison You know lord I've been in a prison Você sabe Deus, eu estive numa prisão For something that I've never done For something that I've never done Por algo que eu nunca fiz It's been one hill after another It's been one hill after another É uma colina atrás da outra But I've climbed them all one by one But I've climbed them all one by one Que tenho escalado uma a uma But this time, Lord you gave me a mountain But this time, Lord you gave me a mountain Desta vez, Deus você me deu uma montanha A mountain, I may never climb A mountain, I may never climb Uma montanha que talvez eu nunca escale It isn't just a hill any longer It isn't just a hill any longer Já não é mais uma colina You gave me a mountain this time You gave me a mountain this time Você me deu uma montanha desta vez My woman got tired of the heartaches My woman got tired of the heartaches Minha mulher se cansou das preocupações Tired of the grief and the strife Tired of the grief and the strife Cansou das aflições e das discussões So tired of working for nothing So tired of working for nothing Cansou de trabalhar por nada Just tired of being my wife Just tired of being my wife Cansou de ser minha mulher She took my one ray of sunshine She took my one ray of sunshine Ela levou meu único raio de sol She took my pride and my joy She took my pride and my joy Levou meu orgulho e minha alegria She took my reason for living She took my reason for living Levou minha razão de viver She took my small baby boy She took my small baby boy Ela levou meu pequeno garotinho
